all of your Medium Format Pentax Gear and send it to me for safe keeping. You can send it Postage COD
if you have to. I'll hold it for you until this horrible phase passes, after which you won't want it anymore but
I'll continue to keep it safe for you. No, no need to thank me, it's the least I could do...

I just HAD to get another lens!
165/2.8 for the 67 off ebay for US$247.52. I'm feeling so thrilled and ashamed at the same time!
I said to myself, "You already have a 165/4 with a leaf shutter!" "But I need the speed and narrower DOF!" "But you already have a 165/4 with a leaf shutter!" "But The narrower DOF will help with the portraits of pretty girls!" "Pretty girls will only get within 500mm range of you!" "But the price is sooo good!" "But you already owe your soul to Visa!" "Damn it! I'm buying it!" "You'll be sorry!" "I don't care!"

That was the sound of the bid confirmation button being pushed, and it was all over.
I'm powerless over this addiction.
I need help!

This medium format thing is going to be my financial undoing! The obsession has now taken full control of my mind and the compulsion that follows has now led me to buy a 645 with 75mm lens and extra 220 film carriers, another 67 lens, a converter so that I can use the 67 lenses on the 645, a couple of straps, another slave flash and another Pelican case. Today I went out and burned up three rolls of 220 on crap!
But damn it was FUN!
OOOWAAHAHAHAAAR!
Maybe there's a 12 step group for this...
Regards, Bob...
